I have the DX on order. Bought him as soon as he went up on pre-order. Its one of my favorite versions of Megatron.
I had the same objections with the price when the T-Rex Megatron was available. I think he was a little over 1K while you could buy a Sideshow PF for around $375. Missing that T-Rex Megatron was definitely one of my biggest regrets. Not making the same mistake this time.
But costs are getting out of hand. Not just the pricing overall, but for me its the insane shipping costs and now additional taxes if you sell something online over $600. At this point the hobby isn't as fun for me anymore and I'm being extremely picky if a statue catches my eye, but this Dragon Megatron is too intense to pass on.
